Scientific titleThe Second Bradford Community Stroke Trial - A qualitative evaluation
Study objectivesThe Second Bradford Community Stroke Trial seeks to assess the neglected area of psychosocial functioning in stroke patients and their families. Patients are randomly allocated to a control or intervention group. The latter group receive regular visits from one of the geriatric department liaison nurses who provide information, advice and support focusing on emotional and social recovery rather than physical function. Quantitative assessments are undertaken at 3, 6 and 12 months. However, there is a concern that the quantitative measures used may not be sufficiently comprehensive to capture the range of outcome experiences for the patient and carer. An additional qualitative evaluation would assess more fully the meanings and experience of their strokes for the patients in the two trial groups and thus facilitate:
1. A more detailed picture of the psycho-social difficulties experienced by stroke patients and their carers;
2. A better understanding of the nature of the intervention provided by the liaison nurses;
3. A more comprehensive evaluation of the trial outcome with a balance between quantitative and qualitative outcome assessments.
